Two Years Later: How Writing WHEN THEY TELL YOU TO BE GOOD Healed Me

  • Summary

  • It’s been two years since the release of my memoir, When They Tell You To Be Good, and the journey has been transformative. In this video, I reflect on what writing this book has taught me about masculinity, Black mortality, and personal growth as a queer Black man. Through confronting grief, toxic masculinity, and abandonment, I’ve come to realize that the answers we seek often lie within us, and writing has been my way of reclaiming that power.

    Join me as I share the key lessons from my memoir and how they continue to shape my understanding of survival and resilience. Whether you’ve read When They Tell You To Be Good or are discovering it for the first time, this video offers a deep dive into how writing can be a tool for self-discovery and healing.
